Jones? Is this a call out to Jones from the 80's Police Academy movies? Does it have a built in Warhorn that makes random sounds when you get a kill like a helicopter over head or booming voice over a PA System "Pull over the car please sir!"

Its a call out to Michael Jones, the pilot who used it in Battle Tech and the actual stock Mech from Technical Readout 3025 and 3039.

VND-1R St. Ives Blue The personal Vindicator of Major Michael Jones and his father before him, St. Ives Blue is easily recognizable for the large silver trumpet painted on its chest and its replacement of the PPC with a Large Laser and LRM-5 with an LRM-10 rack. After his unit seceded to the St. Ives Compact in the wake of the Fourth Succession War the newly formed St. Ives Military Command would ultimately use Jones' altered weapons array as the basis for the VND-1SIC variant.


Same as the official produced "SIC"

Also, PGI may as well add in Minor Factions as selectable, including St. Ives.

It has a Sheriff star. It says ''pursuit vehicle'' on the right hip. The things on the shoulders look like strobe lights. It generally looks like the Mech equivalent of a police car.

I don't care how mediocre it is. I'm buying it.

No idea how this will play, but the model looks awesome. Careful, each new mech now is making the early models look pretty ugly. :)

Can anyone get a screenshots of a comparison to another mech we know the height of in the actual game? Mechlab can be 'deceiving'.

The 3D Model is damn great! Great Job to the team! The Paint scheme is very nice. :D

Now we need a deputy Urban Mech in the same Paint scheme. Make it happen! :)

I promised some screens. Hope these are OK.
Most of them are used with stock build and stock camo.
Some with black/grey using 2PPCs and some with white camo using LRM15/10 to show the tubes.
